The issue with Stimson's original signings is that most were crap. In fact, the issue with Stimson's signings throughout his reign (with about 3 exceptions) were crap, regardless of them being non-league or league players. Georges Ba or Craig Rocastle anyone?

Northampton have signed Francis Laurent from Coventry the former Southend winger is unlikely to have international clearance in time for our game.They do seem to be the big spenders in our divison at the moment.I hope Scally can find the funds as someone like Akinde could be just what we need.

Most of his players were good enough for this level as evident by the fact they got promoted.... And are you really citing two players signed on a month long (trial) contract as evidence of dodgy players signed??? Them two were Hess's equivalent to Bruce Inkango and the ex-Ajax player whose name I've forgotten.... His worse signing was Thurgood and he was shipped out immediately with the mistake noticed....

That Jamie Peters was arguably one of Ipswich's best players against Arsenal the other night.

While in Athens two years ago I watched Craig Rocastle playing in a Greek Premier League game in the Olympic Stadium against Panathinaikos. He was marking Gilberto (ex Arsenal and Brazil skipper) and kept him out of the game. Clearly not good enough for Gills though.

If these players were so good then it doesn't say much about Stimson as a manager coz they sure as hell were shtye for us and did feck all. This must be why as soon as the twat left Barnet they won away under fairclough. Don't tell me, it was coming....some people are just friggin clueless.
